Breaking barriers: the cGAS‐STING pathway as a novel frontier in cancer immunotherapy
Abstract Since its discovery, the cyclic GMP‐AMP synthase (cGAS)‐stimulator of the interferon gene (STING) signaling pathway has been considered a pivotal component of innate immunity and a promising target for cancer immunotherapy. Beyond its canonical role in pathogen defense, accumulating evidence has demonstrated that the cGAS‐STING pathway ...

Optimization of CEST MRI Reporter Protein Design Using Cation‐Pi Networks
A novel engineering approach can produce reporter proteins for cell and viral therapy tracking with unique magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signatures, detectable with chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST). We discover how cation‐π interactions between amino acid groups can help us fine‐tune magnetic resonance properties for noninvasive ...

Alloreactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes generated in the presence of viral- derived peptides show exquisite peptide and MHC specificity [PDF]
The nature of alloreactivity to MHC molecules has been enigmatic, primarily because of the observation that allogeneic responses are considerably stronger than syngeneic responses. To better determine the specificity potential of allogeneic responses, we

T‐cell engaging antibodies (TCEs) and chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells (CAR‐T cells) are among precision medicine therapies that have revolutionized the treatment of hematologic cancers. Their success in oncology has piqued interest in translating this promise into additional indications, such as autoimmune disorders.

RORγt‐APCs: The New Masters of Oral Tolerance
ABSTRACT Oral tolerance is defined by the hypo‐responsiveness of our body to fed antigens, and its failure can lead to immune‐mediated diseases, such as allergy, chronic inflammation and autoimmune diseases. Decades of research have demonstrated that antigen‐presenting cells (APCs) promote oral tolerance by inducing regulatory T cells (Tregs) and/or ...

Is There a Link between Economic Outcomes and Genetic Evolution? Cross-Country Evidence from the Major Histocompatibility Complex [PDF]
This research develops a theory and presents empirical evidence of a link between economic outcomes and genetic evolution. Important properties for successful analysis of such a link are found in the adaptive immune system and particularly in the major ...
